2023 Adopt-A-Tiger ?

[Motor City Sonics]

Whatever happened to that?    How difficult would it be to get it started? 

[Jim Cowan]

You just started it.  Last time, I think my pick was Domingo Leyba.  This time it is clearly Wenceel Perez.  He's going to make you forget all about Ramon Santiago.

Yooper used to make a table of all the Tiger players at all levels and do the fill ins to prevent duplicates, that's about it. But what's missing is sig lines in this BB SW. That's sort of made AAT work. Without those you don't really know who players belong to. So that's a bit of a limitation.

Pick somebody!

OK-OK!

I'll take Lipcius! The last player I took who walked as much as he struck out was Adames.

(Ooops, we know what happened to him....)

Justyn Henry Malloy

I'll put my support behind Jackson Jobe.

I'd like to see him break out this year and show he's a worthy top prospect...

[1984Echoes]

There were multiple candidates I would like to put my support behind...

But of course, we are only adopting one per person...

Jobe beat out Parker Meadows and Joey Wentz, who I also want to put in my support for them... Oh, Wilmer Flores too...

[1984Echoes]

But Jackson Jobe it is...

[Motor City Sonics]

I'll take Nick Maton (Someone got Andre before I could claim him).  

[RandyMarsh]

I'll take Parker Meadows. 

[Dan Gilmore]

Since this seems to be self-serve, I’ll take Vierling.

Can someone explain what this is?

You pick a player and support him all year no matter what.  

Actually, hardly anybody remembers to support their player.  It's just an activity which breaks the Spring training monotony.

A bunch of old guys hanging out on the internet showing unconditional support for a 25-year old baseball player.  It’s ridiculous  and a complete waste of time.

Oh, and I pick Miggy.  Suck on that, haters.

 

[bobrob2004]

I'll take Alex Lange.  

[Tigeraholic1]

Yeah it made it easier when you could post to your sig line. You could put like your last five years before on the sig line. Then everyone could laugh at your pick that flamed out three years ago.

Carpenter!!

It was easier to keep track of when we still had signatures where you could post up to the date stats of your player and everybody could see it. Without that its hard to keep track of what player is with what poster.

@MotownWebGuy Any way we could add a hyphen and players name to our Forum handle?

Yer boy is killin't it.   He should be the #2 OF behind Riley Greene on this team.

Based on spring training....🤣🤣

Start him in Toledo and if he's raking, call him up. Kid needs consistent at-bats. We don't want him as our 4th outfielder, sitting on the bench.

Hey now there will be no slander or questioning in the AAT thread about the Tiger I claimed. As far as I'm concerned raking in Spring Training might as well be raking in the middle of a pennant chase or World Series!
